USS Independence

We've been hearing rumblings about the U.S. Navy's triple-hulled ships, but here's one that was launched last month, the US.S Independence. Built by General Dynamics, it's called a "littoral combat ship" (LCS), and the tri-maran can move huge weapons around faster than any ship in the Navy. Ironic that with all that high tech built in, the ship reminds us of the Merrimac ironclad from Civil War days.
